Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for specific detection of Mycobacterium spp. in a sample and for profiling multiple gene loci within Mycobacterium spp. that are linked to or that are directly involved in antibiotic resistance. In particular the method employs a unique set of nucleic acid amplification primers that enable the whole genome sequence-based approach disclosed herein, allowing for the full characterization of the antibiotic resistance profile of Mycobacterium spp.
